Sornaichean Coir 'Fhinn
The Menhirpaar ( English Standing stones ) Sornaichean Coir 'Fhinn (also Eyre Alignment called), was among the most likely, a third stone, so it is a stone row acted located near Kensaleyre on the peninsula Trotternish, from the A87 ( Road) visible from overlooking "Loch Eyre", on the Isle of Skye in Scotland . The two stones are about 1.5 m high.
A local tradition says that they were built by the Celtic legend king Fingal and his hunters to hang a pot in which deer were roasted over a fire.
Access to the pasture, on which the lichen- covered stones stand, is through a gate on the A87 .
